Multiple PFsense in different Servers, talk to each for assigning DHCP
-
Dear Pfsense Friends
I have a few servers on OVH, where I have the IP Failovers that are used for each pfsense
I was wondering if there is a way to make a kind of configuration
Where PFsense VMS talk to each other and then redirect the traffic for example
If:
192.168.1.2 is in server 1, they always redirect traffic there
If someone wants to talk to 192.168.1.5, they redirect traffic to the vm in pfsense server 5
Thanks in advance for your help

the pfsense servers know each other via WAN (Ip Failovers)

i have no clue what you want to do … could you make a network diagram and try to explain 'the plan' with a lot more detail?

Sounds like Multi-WAN and policy-based routing?

thx for the input, just found it
its called site to site
https://doc.pfsense.org/index.php/OpenVPN_Site_To_Site
or
https://doc.pfsense.org/index.php/Routing_internet_traffic_through_a_site-to-site_IPsec_tunnel
My question is, I want the pfsense site1, or site2, or site3 to still be able to communicate to the internet to use the server's 1 gbps speed and not route everything through pfsense sitex
So I think openvpn is the best right?
It will route only LAN networks
sorry a newbie in routers here

Yes, you can have multiple site-to-site links between various offices in a mesh or just the connections you actually want.
You can direct whatever traffic you like across those - just the intranet traffic between offices for you internal private IP addresses, or send all or part of your outgoing internet traffic to another office first if you have a need for that.
For me, OpenVPN "just works". Because of that, I have never even bothered with IPsec. -

Agreed. I was trying to figure that out too. Thats why I ask for short descriptions and config files (obscured IPs, etc, better than pictures)
